Fisher Phillips – Gender Pay Equity in a Post-COVID World: A Comparative Look

While women overall in the U.S. earn about 80 cents for each dollar paid to men, the disparity in pay among some female minority groups is worse than among all women, according to the National Women’s Law Center’s analysis of 2018 Census Bureau data. Internationally, the gap is even wider in some countries. The pandemic has fundamentally changed the way people work around the globe. Is the now widely accepted remote working arrangement an equalizer for women’s career advancement or does it exacerbate the inequity?  We invite attendees of all genders and races to join us for a guided, interactive discussion about pay equity to help bring greater understanding to the situation for women of color and their place in the society. Understanding and empathy will help effect change.
